During instalation FreeBSD(2.1.5) I have next problemms: 1. When I boot from floppy without kernel configuration my keyboard hangs(light alNumLock, CapsLock and ScrollLock leds), if I enter in kernel config mode(with -c) all ok on this step. 2. I have NEC (atapi ide cdrom),but installation from CDROM always filed, could not find media type. 3. When I try install from DOS partition I have next problems: When start read data from DOS lights next message " write failure on transfer( wrote -1 bytes of 1024 bytes), and at the bottom of the screen next message "Panic: bad dir" and "syncing disk: (sequence of digits) PC reboot after 15 seconds". If I switch to debug mode (ALT+F2) here is next message:" Invalid commpressed data -- format violated". I read my hard geometry with tools from cdrom, set it with fdisk but nothing. 8( I have IDE hard disk.
